Japanese Maple Workshop with Sergio Cuan (Saturday, April 12, 2025)
An exclusive opportunity to work with visiting award winning artist Sergio Cuan.
Under his guidance, you will have the opportunity to style a high quality maple sourced from John Kirby
This all-inclusive class will focus on structuring, seasonal care, and long-term refinement.
Sergio is a largely self taught bonsai artist. However, he has also taken workshops with prominent bonsai masters Bill Valavanis, Mauro Stemberger and Bjorn Bjorholm which he continues to take periodically to further his own bonsai education and skills.
Although he works on a variety of conifers such as Engelmann spruce, Subalpine fir and Eastern white cedar, he has developed a particular interest and passion for a wide range of deciduous species which include maples, elm and beech among many others.
In 2014 he built a bonsai garden in northern New Jersey in a beautiful setting surrounded by rolling hills, lakes and deciduous forests which continue to influence his work. The garden, inspired primarily by Japanese design aesthetics, features a diverse bonsai collection of species.
